dinged 70war. leveled into a hauberk+1 and fire bomblet. besides byakko haidate, pretty much already set with tp gear so all smooth sailing to 75 hopefully. maybe the update will get me even more invites so i can finish it up in half the time.

I had, what is for me anyway, a very significant 36 hours a couple of days ago.

I finally was able to finish the CoP storyline (was up to 8-2 before the latest nerf). So, I got to say hello to Mr. Rajas. :) (I did nothing but stare at my equipment screen for a good five mins...) I had a very good run in abyssea and was able to purchase the body and foot perle pieces (no more slowga dusk feet). I also finally was able to purchase the cursed item for Hecatomb mittens.

Nothing spectacular I know, but the cumulative result was a rather significant upgrade to my Warrior. +12 dex and I suddenly feel like a real DD.

This, the Castle Zval (S) music, more than "creepy", to me sounds as "Hey, just FYI, you're in a REALLY dangerous place, and we'll eat you alive if you drop that invis and sneak, okay? - Best regards, the Kindred."

Got Ares Legs! God I hate drop rates in Salvage. Now I need to work on MKE for +25 acc WS helm so I can use King's Justice without aggressor up (I drop a ton of acc for str so need that extra acc). Although, at times I have been getting some consistantly higher Raging Rush's than KJ. I noticed this in an abyssea party one night when I started using KJ and was averaging like 400-600 KJ (full tp returns) so I switched to RR and was getting 600-800 w/o bergressor and 900-1100 with bergressor up. Now I had no attack buffs except temp items which I know would help KJ more than RR but has anyone else seen similar results to this?

May have just been a bad night, as I only tried about 7-8 KJ's before I said ***** it and full timed RR.
